I feel compelled to point out that when we find 8-bit characters we use the user's locale to find the character set to construct the appropriate MIME headers. So if your 24 year old draft (really?) was edited using ISO8859-1 because it pre-dates UTF-8 (fine, UTF-8 was invented in 1993, but RFC 2277 didn't come out until 1998) but you've changed your locale to use UTF-8, then nmh has no way of knowing that. In theory I suppose we could look at the draft and try to take a guess ... but I think that way lies madness. --Ken
